Erwin, Lukas,
I suggest you join the Embedded ROS special interest group at ros-sig-embedded@googlegroups.com.
There we are currently discussing ways to use ROS on various embedded platforms such as the mentioned ARM Cortex A8/9/... and also on less powerful boards, such as the ARM Cortex M3.
Some members are already working on implementations.

Cheers,
Marcus

I am interested in this initiative. Next year we planned to start this endeavor for OpenEmbedded and Yocto was an option. This would me very useful because this distributions and packages are perfect for embedded development and ease the ROS development in embedded targets like beagleboard, eagleboard and others like the platforms we are developing.

Let me know about your plans, even when this task was planned for next year we can start reviewing this. I am very glad not only high profile CPU and GPU are used for modern robotics but recently more and more interest is being directed to embedded platforms, being linux enabled ARM A or powerfull MCU ARM Cortex.
